These SSDs should work:

This memory should work:
http://www.staples.com/Crucial-8GB-...R3-1066/product_IM1PV2559?externalize=certona
There are sales on SSDs all the time, so you could probably check slickdeals for those, not many deals on memory though.

Any insight on upgrading my RAM?
I have: MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010), 2.4 Ghz, Intel Core i5
I know I am only limited to 8GB ram because of the OS. Where should I buy my additional RAM? Best deals/quality brands?
Is OWC the best bet? http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3

Though apple says the most some models can support is 8gb in ram, some do support 16gb. If thats your model below then it can support 16gb.Any insight on upgrading my RAM?

Take more time to unscrew the laptop than to install the memory

When choosing RAM what am I looking for? Because there are a lot of companies to choose from.. is there a quick guide I can read that shows exactly what to look for in choosing a RAM card? like speed, quality, etc..

Crucial is great and they have a system checker on their website so you could see what ram is compatible with your machine, just download it and it runs for 3 seconds and opens up a page wih suggestions.

Any reason why the length of my videos aren't showing up when I have "show item info" checked?
It shows the size of my pictures as well as how many items are in a folder, but no time under my videos.
I'm running OSX 10.9.3

I know this has been asked a bit recently, but does anyone know where I can find those "hip-hop heads" icons that were around a while ago? They were black and white icons of popular hip hop artists.
I've been looking for a minute now, I can't find them :\

I recently updated VMware Fusion and the dock icon changed to this generic looking notepad thing:
Anyone know how I can get the real one back? I tried googling but couldn't find anything.

Im running a mid 2009 15inch pro on a 500gb hd and 8gb ram. Everything is smooth and it runs like butter
only thing is I gotten the "Macbook has restared due to an error" about 3 times in the few years I've had it
and I get the service battery message about every few months or so but i turned down my keyboard light and ive been gucci ever since.
Still rocking the og battery: it's currently 472 cycles strong
and have 84.3% capacity left with a good battery status according to coconut battery also never had applecare, I live dangerously :
helps that I'm knowlegble about computers
